You can travel alone, with friends, or with a tour group. They all have strong points and weak points.
The best thing about traveling alone is that you can do what you want. No waiting around in places you aren't interested in, no missing a bus because your friend was late, etc. This may sound selfish, but this is your experience. Your experience will be greatly improved by traveling alone. The main worry of traveling alone is loneliness, and there's also the problem of safety, especially in some dangerous places.
Traveling with a friend does sound nice, but it depends on how well you get on. If you have similar interests or travel ideas, it should be wonderful. You will find it much cheaper to cook food by yourselves and share a room. However, a lot of people I meet traveling together don't seem to be having as much fun and often go their separate ways.
Some of my best travelling memories are with tour groups. The key is the tours go well. Remember, a terrible tour guide, quiet group and terrible food can ruin your time. My advice is never to do a group tour that is too long except in countries with safety problems or poor traffic.
All in all, traveling alone is the best, but it is good to try different ways. Invite a friend from home to meet you for a few weeks. Try one or two group tours, and it's best to start with a one-day one.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
( )31.What does the underlined word "selfish" mean in Chinese?
A.无情的 B.自私的 C.离奇的 D.严厉的
( )32.What is the writer's advice on traveling with friends?
A.Living in different rooms. B.Always following their travel ideas.
C.Choosing those who think similarly to you. D.Taking more food when traveling.
( )33.When should people choose a group tour?
A.If the tour lasts long. B.If you're a quiet person.
C.If it's not easy to move around. D.If the daily food is not easy to get.
( )34.What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.Always to travel alone. B.To mix our friends up in the tour.
C.To start with a one-week group tour. D.To try different ways of traveling.
